That's a bit too much risk for me. it's really not THAT risky when you consider how many people have gone and how many people have come home. but yeah it's still a risk. personally I'd never join the army. fighting in wars and shit is just something im completely opposed to. id like to think that humans are better than that (but they're obviously not, haha) | ||

As for police and fire, half the cops in the country are diabetic (type 2) and there is the "American Disability Act", which I would check out if I were you. I'm fairly certain that simply having a disease can't keep you from getting in; this is why the medical examination is required, by law, to come after the written/oral/physical/background/polygraph/psyc evaluations in law enforcement. Where I'm from, the requirement is that you have a hemoglobin A1C below 7.0 for a consistent amount of time. I'm from SF, california, so you can't get into a fire department around here unless you are a black / hispanic / woman / lesbian anyway. But I imagine, in general, the diabetic thing is the same. It's legally considered discrimination if you're ineligible solely for being diabetic...but you have to prove you aren't a liability. | ||
